Oompa Loompa IUD.

I have no idea where that thought came from. I think I'm in trouble...

"Rosie you're all right
You wear my ring
When you hold me tight
Rosie that's my thing
When I turn out the light
I got to hand it to me.

Looks like it you and me again tonight, Rosie."

I thought it might be a heart valve of some creature. Or some contraceptive device. I will say, I am darn sure it is not made by Smith & Wesson, for anything made by said company.

It looks like some type of a digestive tract parasite. Keybiotics sells a digestive cleansing product but the company's integrity is in question.

Keybiotics Review

is keybiotics.com a scam or legit | keybiotics.com trust reviews |check keybiotics.com for fraud and risk | is keybiotics.com safe or fake

The internet is full of this ****!

It's what's left of that wad of chewing gum you swallowed back in fifth grade. They were right--it's still in there.

As is the fact that you were chewing it in the first place, duly noted in your permanent record.

Not sure if was originally meant to keep things out or keep things in, but I'm reasonably sure it is waaayyy past it's "use by" date!

Looks like some bacteria is circling the wagons.

The worst thing I have ever seen was. My dad was a medic in the army and he took a monster sized boil out of my brothers fore arm. For me being a little kid that was scary. I could fish with that thing.

Don't know what it is. But since I am sure I don't want one, I never really checked into it.

I think it was used, put back in the wrapper, then found under a car seat after a couple of hot summer months.

There was something similar going around recently supposedly full of malware. A super gross looking photo that was actually a plant of some sort.

I don't click on any of that stuff...

Reminds me of when I managed to blow out something that was blocking my eustachian tube to my right ear. The inside of my head felt sore (weird sensation) but the pressure relief was wonderful. Then I looked at what was in the tissue for 30 seconds to see if it moved...
